Jus Buah Monavie Hebat

Key Ingredient in MonaVie:

The açai berry is the crown jewel of the MonaVie blend. When properly freeze-dried, acai boosts an ORAC score of 1,026 per gram—higher than that of any other fruit or vegetable tested to date.It’s no wonder that for ages the indigenous cultures of the Amazon have revered açai as a source of health and vitality. Recently, modern science has validated the remarkable health benefits of this fruit, and studies have shown açai to contain the following beneficial nutrients:

• Polyphenols
• Vitamins and minerals
• Amino acids Essential fatty acids (omega 3, 6, and 9)
• Plant sterols
• Fiber

Studies have also shown that freeze-dried açai powder has an ORAC score that is 79 times higher than that of red grapes and an anthocyanin (purple colored antioxidants) level that is 20–30 times that of red wine.The final blend of MonaVie incorporates the flavors and benefits of the açai berry and 18 other healthful and delicious fruits.

The Process

MonaVie takes great care at each step in production to ensure that the highest quality standards are met.

(Harvesting) The process begins with the harvesting of the açai berry deep within the Amazon River basin. Unlike poachers, who illegally chop down an entire tree just to harvest a 12-inch section of the tree know as the palmito (or “heart of the palm”), our conservative harvesting method removes only the açai berries, thereby preserving the life of the tree and promoting the preservation of the rainforest.

(Processing) Açai is a delicate fruit and much of its vitamin and nutrient content can be lost within 48 hours of harvesting. Once harvested, our acai is immediately processed into our patent-pending, freeze-dried formula, maintaining its beneficial properties. The final acai blend contains the benefits of both freeze-dried acai and frozen acai pulp, which contains the fruit’s flesh, skin, and seed. By pureeing each fruit in its entirety, the full complement of nutrients is captured.

(Formulation and bottling) Most companies use a process known as kettle pasteurization. This process involves heating the formula for several hours and can inadvertently “cook out” much of the nutritional properties. However, MonaVie uses flash pasteurization in which the formula is rapidly heated, bottled, and cooled, thereby capturing the fresh flavors, vibrant colors, and dense nutrient content of the blend.

The Science. Each step of this advanced and unique process takes place under the watchful eyes of our industry leading product development team and scientific advisors.

*ORAC:
An Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity (ORAC) score is a test tube analysis that measures the antioxidant levels of food and other chemical substances. If a food has a high ORAC score, then it means the food is high in antioxidants. The antioxidant’s strength is its ability to eliminate oxygen free radicals. With the ORAC score, a higher score means the food is better at helping us fight diseases.

Foods with a high ORAC score may be able to protect cells and their components from oxidative damage. Oxygen radicals are chemicals that form naturally inside the body through the process of oxidation

According to the official MonaVie website, they are purveyors of a juice blend that contains white grape, pear, acerola, pear puree, aronia, purple grape, cranberry, passion fruit, banana, apricot, prune, kiwi, blueberry, bilberry, camu camu, wolfberry, pomegranate, lychee fruit, açaí, and palm nut oil. While MonaVie will not disclose the percentage of açaí in their products, they tout them as premier açaí blends — under the implication that a large percentage of the juice blends is açaí.

Ever seen an açaí berry? Neither had I. The berries are produced by a palm tree known scientifically as Euterpe oleracea, common along Brazil’s Amazon River; almost all the açaí palms grow wild in deforested floodplains. When ripe, the berries are dark purple, about the size of a blueberry, and contain a thin layer of edible pulp surrounding a large seed. During the dry season when the fruit is plentiful, hundreds of men lug woven baskets filled with the shiny fruit plucked from the 80-foot-high palm trees that line the river. Demand is high for the staple of native Amazon cuisine, virtually unknown globally until 15 years ago when a pair of Californians recognized the economic potential of the regionally popular berry.

The Science

Along with the moniker as a “super food”, açaí berries are highly regarded for their amounts of antioxidants. A 2006 Brazilian study of antioxidants in the most commonly consumed fruits in Southern Brazil (mulberry, grapes, açaí, guava, strawberry, acerola, pineapple, mango, graviola, cupuaçu, and passion fruit) concluded that the highest levels of Trolox-equivalent antioxidant capacity (TEAC) were found in acerola (53.2 μmolg^-1 (micromoles of Trolox equivalents per gram)), mango (12.9), strawberry (9.2), grapes (7.0), and açaí (6.9). A similar 2004 study by the USDA among fruits common to the United States indicated total (lipophilic and hydrophilic) oxygen radical absorption capacity (ORAC) of cranberries (94.56 μmolg^-1 (micromoles of Trolox equivalents per gram)), wild blueberries (92.60), plums (62.39), and blackberries (53.48). An article in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry reported the ORAC of freeze-dried fruit pulp and skin powder of açaí berries as 1027 μmolg^-1 (micromoles of Trolox equivalents per gram), the same value used in marketing by MonaVie. While the studies used different assays (TEAC vs. ORAC), the measurements are 98% correlated in the above antioxidant studies due to the high capacity values (above 8 μmol/L (micromoles of Trolox equivalents per Liter)), after taking the length of the inhibition time into account.

What this means to the average non-scientist is that eating six to eight large strawberries (about 1/4 pound) or a few mango slices (about 1/6 pound) results in the same antioxidant potential as a one-gram pill of pure, concentrated, freeze-dried açaí berries or 1/3 pound of fresh açaí berries. Modern processes have been able to concentrate antioxidants per gram from açaí berries to the highest level of all fruits, but whole açaí berries are much farther down the scale than other readily available fresh fruits. With a vast number of juices and supplements competing for consumers’ money, it makes good business sense to tout ingredients with the highest measurable numbers — thus the trend towards using freeze-dried açaí berries instead of purees and pulps; the number 1027 sounds a whole lot better than 6.9.

Are açaí berries a good source of antioxidants? Yes. But if it’s only the amount of antioxidants you care about, the same USDA study points to other non-fruit sources of antioxidants such as pecans (179.4 μmolg^-1, or about 1/2 a nut to compare to the one-gram açaí pill), dried oregano leaf (2001.29, or about half a leaf), and cinnamon (2675.36, or 1/10th of a teaspoon). At the top end of the scale, a single drop of clove essential oil has an ORAC score of 10,786,875 μmol/L, the same amount of Trolox-equivalent antioxidants as in several spoonfuls of freeze-dried açaí berry powder.
